Don't know anything about the company, but just got an email talking about them selling wood in December. Timber was killed in a forest fire in 1870. No idea what it will cost, but sounds like fun!

Wow, Jim is my kind of guy, the old fellow would have some hair raising stories from many attempts to reach or leave the hill with his old truck. I'm pretty sure that, he became also an expert of tyre fixing, I just imagine the many tires he blown or punched in that sort of terrain, those tree roots/spikes are deadly to tires, how do I know..??? long story...!:wink:

Lucky that, the daughter in law saw the business side of it and got the go ahead from the old Jim to start selling, he admits that we couldn't possibly use it all in his lifetime and from what I see, his age may be saying that, he hasn't far to go so, was good that someone is prepared to share it with the world, I don't think that Jim on its own, would ever do it, that's his treasure and will always be...!

Thanks for sharing the story with all of us...!

Cheers
George
